Of the Hungarian rivers investigated so far, the highest microplastics concentration were found in the river Danube: 50 ± 7.07 particles per cubic meter, corresponding to 0.05 particles per liter. The size of the particles was between 60 micrometers and 2 mm. To learn about the effects of the microplastic contamination, it will be necessary to collect more data and establish monitoring programs.
